Racer,

Since you want to stay stock you should check out these guys:

OEM Parts & OEM Wheels - Original Equipment Parts from NewTakeOff

They have pretty decent prices for shocks & struts:

2005-2009 Mustang GT Coupe Rear Shock R/L (Pair)

2005-2008 Mustang GT Front Strut R/L (Pair)

Just to kick the bee's nest a little here. The only time I have ever seen shocks have an affect on ride hight (very little) is in the case of gas charged shocks that might add a little extra ride hight until they wear out.

When you replace your shocks/struts, you may also want to replace your strut mounts. I made the mistake of not replacing the strut mounts when I installed the bilstien and now I have popping/clunking noise when I go over bumps.

Been there, done that. When I took my strut mounts to replace them, the one was completely split in half and all the little bearings fell out. I am thinking it might not have been designed to work like that.

THank you all for your input, as always my bros here rock!!!!!!!!!

Are you guys saying when I go to replace my OE struts I also need to replace the upper mounts? Do I replace them with Ford parts? Would it be best to go with GT500 or Steeda HD mounts? I intend to go with Koni STR.T struts. Not lowering car.

gt500 insulators then. cheap and good especially if you aren't slamming the car.

OK, now to show my ignorance. I was asking about strut mounts. You said something about "insulators". Are we talking about the same thing?

[GOLDENPONY]

Where's the best place to buy the GT500 mounts? I found them for $55.37 per pair from GEF Racing. Good?

[GOLDENPONY]

Ordered a pair of GT500 upper strut mounts from GEF Racing. $53.37, no tax, no shipping. Should go nice with the Koni STR.T struts & shocks next spring.
